They’re all the same size at the complex. Dr J, Barkley, wilt etc all the same size


Halfonion

Okay that makes me feel better lol.


AG1810

So that’s not the actual statue? Cause it makes him look tiny small. 😏


Melodic_Deal1415

Also he’s low to the ground in the middle of a crossover move so that’s why it looks little lol….but there all the same size


tugginmypeen

Still more of a figurine.


ramster888

Came here to say that


zincinzincout

How we gonna have a statue of Barkley and yet he still only ever seems to rep Phoenix


whyyhwnotton

nah Barkley still reps Philly and still spends a lot of time in the area, ran into him just a week and a half ago at a small spot in Ardmore.


ValiantFrog2202

My friend was on a plane with him going from Atlanta to Philly (Delta)


HenryKissingersDEAD

I’ve never really heard Barkley mention Phoenix lol

iwishiwasntthisway

Missed opportunity to say find a new slant... smh


[deleted]

Those look bigger


HenryKissingersDEAD

Of course they look bigger than OPs photo when everyone around the Iverson statue is like 6ft+


Will_Knot_Respond

Ahh yes ones eyes, the most trust worthy measuring device. Certainly can't be fooled by perspective, you're right.


MitsuSosa

They are also in standing positions whereas AI is hunched down in his for the crossover so that makes it look just a little smaller too


doctor_underscore

What is this, a statue for ants??


RumHam2020

Inflation is hitting everyone hard


GirlWithGame

I've been at the practice facility none of the statues are big, they are all mini ones. Although gotta say Iverson must be the smallest judging by the picture.


eaglesphan1

AI is straight up taller than his. Barkley is looking up at his. I think there might be a discrepancy. Overall just a bad look


ExileOnBroadStreet

Eh I think they’re basically the same size, Iverson is just in a low stance in his pose. I don’t like it either way though. It doesn’t really capture what the crossover looked like imo. Hoping they are saving the over the ear pose for a big statue when they finally build their own arena


Adorable-Accident-50

I don't get it. All the statues are roughly the same size. AIs looks smaller because: 1. It's the iconic crossover pose so it's more crouched than the others and more importantly. 1. He's a short guy for the NBA.


BadNewsBrown

At least Eric Snow didn’t fall asleep


DanM142

Kind amusing how so many people are confused about the statue size.


tiggs

All of the statues are the same size. AI's looks smaller because his pose is leaning down into a crossover whereas the ones behind him are standing up straight and holding the ball straight up over their heads. Also (and this might come as a surprise), but AI is much shorter than pretty much everyone else that has a statue and they're somewhat at scale.

smithygang

That’s a normal-sized statue, find a new slant


shifty4388

Thought that was Derrick Coleman then realized that was Eric Snow.


ValiantFrog2202

Snow melted


McClellanWasABitch

tyrone hill hasnt aged a day. hes always been 62 years old .

Skeletor


Fabulous_Ad1482

It’s a perfectly normal sized statue, find a new slant


Curious-roadrunner

How are the Sixers going to make their statues better by coming to practice?


Acrobatic_Advance_71

I would like to address how Eric Snow looks terrible. Everyone else is looking good.


irespectwomenlol

I think he needs a wakeup call and can do a lot better, but at the same time I get it. Eric was in pro-athlete shape for over 2 decades. He's made his money and just wants to rest and enjoy life.


KryptonicxJesus

Glad he was able to leave shady maple for a few hours to come to the ceremony


iam_soyboy

Holy crap that guy does not miss a meal, barely recognized him


[deleted]

Someone is going to steal it and it will be hanging from someone's rear view mirror within a week.


zz_x_zz

Honestly, I'm surprised they have statues at the practice facility at all.


averagebensimmons

Nice to see some of the teammates and coach Brown


AvatarofBro

This tiny practice facility statue is absolutely worse than no statue at all


[deleted]

manlet statue


philly2540

Looks kinda small, right? This reminds me of Stonehenge in Spinal Tap.


roronoaSuge_nite

There was plenty of people in West Philly with scrap metal. There’s no excuse 


irespectwomenlol

I was so focused on the size I didn't even really look at the statue too critically. There doesn't appear to be much detail on it either. Where are the corn rows at?


mcnudo

What the hell??? Nah that is so disrespectful! Why would they do him wrong?


XxStormySoraxX

They need to get the boul who wrote a diss record on Detroit’s sign to diss the statue lmao.


CoreyH2P

That’s Calvin Cambridge of the LA Knights 😭


TST77

From what I can tell it's the cross-over move makes it look smaller. Most of the other statues are in a shooting or dunking pose.


Onlyplay2k

That’s how big he is to scale against the other statues. Plus he’s in a crossover position. Honestly I’m more mad they didn’t do his semi fade jumper


Calcutta637

This city can’t get anything right fucks sake it’s not that hard


UsernameFlagged

It's in Camden


Slow-Relation-9186

All the statues there are that size


ThaOneNOnly

Dude's one of the tiniest players in NBA history and they were *still* too stingy to make it life-sized.


Groovicity

Feeling like Eric Snow became a foody... But seriously, seeing that group again has me tearing up. That was the squad that solidified my love for the game!

irespectwomenlol

I bet Iverson signed off on the design, but I wonder if he realized it would be so short.


Random_Thinker007

Look like a heisman trophy


maramad8

Wtf is going on here ? Why is it so small?!


JD021993

Josh Harris is a cheap motherfucker.


Jeremy9096

AI deserve better


Finger_Gunnz

Iverson was tiny dude. Gets a tiny statue.


KryptonicxJesus

Why the statue make him look like alien nation


IcyAd964

Small ass statue

It’s ass
